In this episode, I challenge a belief many of us carry into relationships without even realizing it: the idea that we need someone else to be happy.
Drawing from my own experiences and years of coaching, I talk about the difference between needing someone and genuinely wanting them in your life, and why that distinction can completely change the way we experience love, connection, and fulfillment.
When we approach relationships from a place of need, it can create pressure, expectations, and anxiety. We start looking for validation outside ourselves and unintentionally expect other people to make us feel complete. But when we shift into desire instead of dependency, relationships tend to feel lighter, more authentic, and more aligned.
If you’ve ever felt anxious in relationships, feared losing someone, or found yourself constantly needing reassurance, this conversation offers a different perspective on how we show up in love—and what we actually want from it.
